I've seen stupid endings in my life, yes, but this is too much. In this movie, after everybody discovered that Joan Allen's husband was actually dead in a well in the backyard of their lovely house for years (so, he never abandoned her or their daughters, friends and job, as she thought and she told to everybody)... what happened? Nothing. This crazy woman assumed that he left her and run away with another woman and never looked back, that he was a cheater and an evil man. She made everybody believed that, made his daughters suffer a lot and hate him, too, she was completely wrong, and you know, it's OK.
They put the poor guy in a coffin, then they sat together feeling finally in peace. So,according to this movie, if your husband vanishes suddenly and with no explanation or further phone calls, you could easily assume that he escaped with a younger woman and tell everybody that he is a complete monster.
If someone, just by accident, discover later that he actually had a terrible accident and he's dead, well, it's just the way it is. No remorse, no recriminations, no guilt. All your family is going to be perfectly well with your little mistake. Isn't that lovely?
